Educator Effectiveness Metrics

Educator Effectiveness Metrics

As required by statute and State Board of Education rules, CDE must collect teacher and principal performance evaluation data and provide aggregated reports back to districts and the public. These reports are referred to as the Educator Effectiveness Metrics. Available beginning in early February, the department has released a set of educator effectiveness metrics that reflect performance evaluation ratings from the 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16 school years. (The time lag in reporting is due to the time it takes districts to complete and submit evaluation data to CDE.) The department will report on only four metrics for teachers and four for principals. The publicly reported metrics will only show how teachers and principals are doing as a group at the school, district and state level. Protections are in place to maintain the privacy of individual teachers and principals.
